More than five months after the death of Florida A&M University drum major Robert Champion, charges will be filed against the people responsible for the hazing.

Prosecutors are expected to file charges against several people, ranging from misdemeanor to felony counts, on Wednesday afternoon.

Champion died hours after last fall's Florida Classic in Orlando on Nov. 19. The medical examiner ruled that Champion died of blunt-force trauma and investigators said Champion's injuries were a result of a hazing ritual in a band bus outside an International Drive hotel.

"This was not a mystery murder. There was no question as to when it happened, where it happened. With all these answers, there are either going to be charges or not," Champion family attorney Christopher Chestnut said.

"People need to come and do their job. Arrest these people for the death of my son," Champion's father, Robert Sr., said.

In late March, the Orange County Sheriff's Office turned over their findings to the State Attorney.
